Chapter 111. Come Back to Me

Dimitri’s POV

Letting go of Maddie was the hardest thing I ever had to do. I knew that I wasn’t going to see her for the next few hours and I already missed her so fucking much.

I didn’t want to go. I really didn’t.

It would be the first night since her birthday that she would go to sleep without me. It would be the first night since her birthday that I couldn’t wrap my arms around her and listen to her heartbeat as I fell asleep. I hated it so much. Falling asleep in her arms was the best part of my day. I wouldn’t get to do that tonight and it was pissing me off.

“Come back to me,” she said softly.

I tightened my arms around her and buried my nose into her hair.

“Always, princess,” I said, taking a deep breath of her scent. “You are my home. I will always come back to you.”

I wished that I didn’t have to leave her.

“I miss you already,” she said, tightening her arms around my waist.

I smiled a little and rubbed her back.
